MSAA was fixed with the latest patch, so you didn't do anything. This sounds like you are running out of VRAM. Have you enabled vt compression?

The weapons in the 1940's section are so much more satisfying to use than the ones in 1960, they kinda sound like crap in comparison. I wish you could have kept them.
Definitely true.
MG46 >>>>>> MG60 (laser variant)
Assault rifle 46>>> Assault rifle 60
You could switch the fire rate on the 46 assault rifle too!
Would actually have fit BJ's character nicely to use/dig up an older weapon that still works brute force against some futuristic power armor.

holy mother of christ I just bet the hangar, on hard (not uber, the one below).
that was brutal.
this entire chapter was could have been the last chapter, as far as the difficulty was concerned.

Just spent over an hour on this section, Uber.
It check pointed me with only a pistol, 7 bullets in the scoped rifle and my laser cutter. Ridiculously hard but SO satisfying when I took down the shotgun dude who would instant kill me.
I was trapped in that tiny corner, only option was to poke out and use my pistol. If I ran out for another position I was dead.
Oh and I had about 40 health.
GOTY so far, it's the sort-of sequel to Rage that I always wanted.

I managed to glitch myself past this section. If you leg it to the scaffolding ledge, when they finally kill you, you respawn with them all dead there.
Actually annoyed me as I wanted to complete it properly.
This part took me a bunch of tries as well on Uber.Just spent over an hour on this section, Uber.

What I did was use a charged up shot from the laser rifle on the shotgun guy, go behind the corner again, pull out my pistol and stop and popped about 5 guys. By that time the shotgun guy would be right around the corner so I pulled out my double pistols and waited for him. As soon as I saw him I unloaded and that killed him.
How do you charge the laser shot, is this when you scope and it does the lock-on stuff?
I managed to take him down by loading him with pistol shots while he approached and then as he was turning the corner to me, loaded him with laser blasts until he fell / before he could shoot.
I then took everyone else out from behind the corner with pistol .

So I'm writing a few thousand words on why I love this game for a new thread. This thread will have a ridiculous amount of GIFs. I don't think GAF is ready.
Yup, got check pointed with that same setup on Uber. After too many tries of sticking to that first wall and failing, I decided to use all my ammo on the first few regular enemies (no helmets) so that I could clear enough of an area to pick up the assault rifle ammo they drop without getting hammered. It worked! Then I used the assault rifle to take out the rest, and left the shotgun dude for last killing him with 2 rockets. One of the most brutal yet satisfying sections. It was again another indicator that wherever you are in the game, it's better to be moving around than to be whack-a-mole'ing because you will get flushed out.

When you come to in the crashed spaceship, don't shoot at any of the enemies on the overpass advancing toward you because you'll use up a bunch of your ammo for nothing. Just duck down and wait and you'll go to the cutscene where you rope into the room where you smash the guys head against the wall. I tired this strategy on my second playthrough and it made that area a piece of cake.

That is good news. I guess I will hop back in now for a replay. I haven't played it since release week. Compression was not enabled and it kind of fixed the problem.
Yeah, you scope and there's a charging indicator.
And yeah, I also had to restart the chapter at that point to get some better weapons given to me, weird bug.
So this game is $39.99 at Best Buy this week ($31.99 for GCU) How is best buy at giving money back if you are still in the 45 day window? What do I need to do? I don't have the receipt but I am a mybestbuy reward member and a CGU member they could easily look my purchase up on computer, right? Also, do I need to bring in the opened game as proof? Thanks.
You mean you want to get the sale difference back? Sometimes the window on that is independent of the return policy or whatever. They can look up receipts in store, and I think that's especially easy if you're a rewards member. I doubt you need to bring the item in but I'm not sure.
Yes, I want to get the sales difference back. Thanks.
I hope they can can give the CGU pricepoint to me since I am a member now (I either got CGU with Watchdogs or this game...I'm not sure) but since I'm a member now I hope I get those savings. Either way I'm getting $20 bucks back (hopefully $30). And then I'm definitely reupping my CGU for another two years since that sale ends on the 5th and I have a $10 coupon that expires next month while I'm on vacation.
Many people don't care for the first chapter (I thought it was fine). If you're at...I dunno...chapter 6 or so and still don't feel it, then maybe it's just not your thing

climbing a building, right after the robot dog catches the grenade
It absolutely does. The first level, and a little beyond that, I was pretty unimpressed with. Game gets way better later on.
That's the first level. It's taken you an hour to get there?
Oh yeah, you've got nowhere. You're still playing the prologue. The game gets going soon enough.
That's like saying you're bored with Chrono Trigger at the Millennial Fair.
So how many times did people die towards the end of the Bridge chapter trying to jump into the helicopter? You either jump short, or too high and hit it so that you fall.
Worst thing about that section is, the checkpoint is BEFORE the jump, so every time you die in the next section you have to make the jump and listen to the mini dialogue section while you fly around to the fight area.
Oh and when I finally did that, I fell into the water trying to jump from the helicopter... FUUUUU

I died so many times on the initial jump out of the helicopter that I had to stop and wonder whether the game was just too unforgiving or I've been a moron all of these years. After some careful deliberation I ended up blaming the game ;p
Was replaying some Wolfenstein last night on hard and holy shit at the very first encounter when you first make your way back from one particular motherfucking place. You start in a room full of alerted bad guys, both on your level and above, including one of those shithead shotgun troopers, you're low on health and ammo, and have shit cover. Go!
I replayed it maybe half a dozen times and couldn't believe that there's not a single health pack to be found on that floor, and nothing to help you when hiding behind the scant cover positions there are. Was just brutal.

I think I died once from failing to jump to or from said helicopter in my two playthroughs. Maybe you're all playing the secret "Helicopter six inches to the left" difficulty level?

Yep. Forgot about that but that was exactly the trick.

I haven't been paying attention to this game at all, but I recently got a PS4 and I'm looking for games to play. Is the general consensus for this game positive? As someone who typically likes the big triple-A shooters (COD4, MW2, BioShock) is this game worth checking out?
Obviously, I know that you guys can't tell me whether or not I'll like this game, but I still like hearing from people who might have tastes similar to mine.

If you enjoy the big shooters like that I see no reason why you wouldn't enjoy Wolfenstein. Fantastic Gunplay, surprisingly good story and characters, decent to amazing level design depending on level, and RPG-lite level ups which are actually enjoyable to unlock
PS4 version runs quite beautifully, 60fps most of the time and no noticeable tearing. As have been mentioned numerous times, they really nailed the gunplay in this. The way the guns rattle when fired and how the enemies react to being hit is very satisfying. Just shooting things alone in this game worth the price of admission. It's so nice to be actually be able to hit shit without having to use iron sights all the time.
Unfortunately the audio feedback is some of the worst I've ever heard in a FPS. What the fuck happened here? The first gun you get in the game is the most pitiful thing I've had the displeasure of hearing in a while. What makes it even more bizarre is that the rest of the game sounds quite satisfying and ultra loud in comparison. I'm only an hour or so in so perhaps the guns later on have more oomph? The mounted chain gun doesn't sound any good either. I wonder if anyone is working on a sound pack for this on PC, I remember Doom 3 had one. Might be worth picking up the PC version for cheap down the track if there is one.
Still downloading the 5GB patch though if that ends up changing anything.

I play the same games and I really enjoyed this. It was a lot more challenging too. I play COD games on Veteran but I had a hard time with this on Death Incarnate. I am going to try Uber though.

Great. I'll end up checking this out then. I was initially a little wary since I've steered clear of the console Wolfensteins in the past (never really considered them to be "purchase-worthy" games), but I'm really looking forward to playing something on the PS4.

Finally bought the uncensored version. I'm past the opening chapter and already starting to like this game.
Nazi killing is fun! Dual wielding weapons should me more common in first person shooters. I'm blasting my way through hordes of enemies only using two assault rifles.

Just finished it on Uber, god DAMN is the final boss tough! I would have straight given up if you didn't get a check point mid way through, was bad enough not getting one after taking out the first of two things you need too...
I liked the ending and was genuinely upset the game was over... so I started it again on the middle setting, it's a different game just running into rooms without being cautious, feel SO good.
Story and all aside, my favourite thing about the game is the lean mechanic, I love it to bits especially in heated fire fights where you literally dodge bullets and quickly poke in and out of cover.
Game of the year, for sure.
I feel this was the sequel to Rage and I was happy with that, I would another 'sequel' but with a different story/universe from Bethesda, this is how FPS should be.

Picked it up as a last-minute purchase in the Steam sale, I enjoyed the prologue.
I had to rebind the crouch key, though, sliding was basically impossible by default.

I have Shift as a Toggle Sprint, so I only have to press it once and then I can easily tap Control to slide. Just have to slide your pinky down a key.
Now the real finger manipulation is trying to make the Lean work on Alt. My fingers rest on the keyboard like my hand is permanently mangled into a deformed claw when I'm playing Wolfenstein.
It's fine, though, I wouldn't want to play it any other way.

Yeah, I'm okay with Ctrl being crouch in most games, but that particular button combination isn't exactly helpful.

I have lean on ctrl since I'll never want to do it while sprinting (and that's on toggle anyway) and I have crouch on Q.
I can't say how pleased I am with the languages in the game. Characters speak in polish/german when it makes sense, so refreshing
